The leading culturally responsive community trainings for suicide prevention and mental health

About BSBB

The Be Sensitive, Be Brave (BSBB) trainings infuse culture and diversity throughout foundational workshops on suicide prevention and mental health. Community members learn to act as eyes and ears for mental health and suicidal distress, and to connect individuals to help or support.
BSBB workshops are 2-hour interactive workshops that can be delivered or taken online or in person, by an experienced and caring community trainer. They are designed for helpers for all ages: children, adolescents, adults, & older adults. We also offer a middle school version of BSBB, adapted for younger students to help refer peers to help or support.
BSBB has been translated and adapted to be delivered in other languages as well including: Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Tongan, Tagalog, Korean and soon to be more!
